I've been reading up on the luggage /pack racks that people are using. Apparently there is/was a factory grab-rail or rack attachment that some people have used.
Does anyone have a photo?
Is it any good?
I've been looking also at the Ventura system but apparently is only made to order for GRiSO's.

I don't want side bags etc, just a passenger grab-rail with perhaps a platform to fit a top box.

Cheers

Dunno if you can see it close enough, but I have the factory rack plus GRiSO bag on the rear. Check my avatar.

That's one is made by Hepco & Becker.  The one I have is supposedly a Guzzi item, but probably made by some third party.

I prefer the one I have, especially as it mates to the Guzzi? tail bag.  Not cheap, and I suspect not available anymore.

However, I concede that the H&B one may take a topbox, not sure it has to be an H&B topbox, surely the Givi universal mount would work just as well.

The H&B rear rack does take a H&B trunk, they have a few different sizes. I mounted a givi plate on top of the H&B so I can use my Givi trunk I already had

I installed the Stucchi Luigi (now LGC) rack:
GRiSO luggage rack

Works well, but its pretty damn heavy and Industrial-looking....
Pretty adaptable, there have mounts for various saddlebags, and I have the Guzzi tailbag on mine.

MG Cycle usually have them, subject to the usual Italian 'casual supply chain' Razz

The Guzzi OEM rack is listed as available for $160 or so at AF1:

Thanks guys, I like the H&B one as it incorporates a passenger grab rail of sorts. I might not get so many complaints of crushed boobs under braking. Pricey though, compared to the factory one.

I had the Ventura rack and Mistral bag. it was cavernous and waterproof, and served me well. I'd say it was the easiest luggage system I've had through the last 20 years. Let me know if you need photos.
